Submitted by podizz on Sat, 12/26/2009 - 12:48
- The EagleBank Bowl is played at Robert F. Kennedy Memorial Stadium in Washington, D.C.
- The game, which was originally dubbed "The Congressional Bowl" before sponsorship was received by EagleBank.
- Prior to the game's approval by the NCAA, Navy and the ACC signed agreements to participate in the game if it was approved. Under the agreement, the ACC would provide its ninth-best team for the bowl if the league had nine bowl eligible teams. However, if the primary options do not provide two bowl eligible teams to play or another bowl chooses one of those teams, the committee can select a team from the Mid-American Conference, Conference USA, or the Big Ten as a replacement.
- Results:
- 2008 December 20, 2008 Wake Forest 29 Navy 19
- 2009 December 29, 2009 Temple vs. UCLA
